«Joy»

Futuristic shapes of armchairs and ottomans, soothed by cozy textile upholstery, a chair from the GDR of the 60s with a metal frame and a fabric seat, a transparent plastic plate curved into a coffee table…

Czechoslovakia, 1960s (oak/walnut) with noble-colored wooden boxes, a large glossy highboard Romania 1970s from the Vneshposyltorg catalog on oblique legs of an amber shade of wood and a black bedside table. The initial incongruity of genres turns all these objects into quite a friendly family, in which, moreover, everyone is individual.

The classic white walls contrast with the berry color especially advantageously, I repeated the same duet in textile curtains, and also added cherries to the decoration with blankets, bed linen, the headboard of a large soft bed and pillows. The sweet berries themselves can also be found in one of the paintings, neatly stacked in a charming white saucer on a green background.

This is not a coincidence, every detail has its own weight. So, the paintings were painted by the artist specifically for the project.
I would especially like to highlight the cheerful canvas in the living room, which depicts a white armchair with a print in the form of cherry crayfish. The blue background clings to a vintage mirror in a frame of the same shade. This heavenly tone is not duplicated anywhere else and is not justified by anything, since it simply does not need to be justified. He gives even more air to the space and flirts with the viewer with his brightness.

The layout, which the customer also wanted, turned out to be as open as possible, with a sense of blurred boundaries.
In the living room alone, without walls, I have arranged three separate functional spaces at once: a few meters at the desk, a soft area and a kitchen. The ensemble was drawn bright and expressive, slightly eclectic, while in the room you can literally feel the warmth and comfort. It is comfortable here, the furniture is conveniently located and without piles — I would like to ask the hostess for another cup of coffee and stay longer.

So, in order not to distract the public from the main thing, the kitchen practically merges with the walls, although it remains a full-fledged cooking area with spacious cupboards for dishes and everything necessary. There is a hob and an oven, and a microwave and refrigerator modestly hide behind the doors so as not to attract attention.

Without violating the set style of the 60s, she dissolves into the walls, while fulfilling her task — all the dresses and shoes of the beautiful owner of the house will fit in this part of the apartment, but they will not catch anyone’s eye, disorder is excluded. All zones imperceptibly flow into each other, there is no redundancy in the environment, which is also important, even fundamentally important with a small meter. It is easy for residents not only to move in space, but also to transform it on their own, simply by adding new accents or moving furniture.

It’s just a gift for the designer! Cold metal, shiny plastic and glass, warm and heavy carved wood, prints, patterns and textures, enveloping textiles — all this forms a unique style, projects are not similar to each other. Only one thing in such interiors is read in the same way and intuitively — the feeling that you are in the house of the main character of the series "Mad Men". Or "Why women kill." Or maybe a film by the genius of the French "new wave" Jean-Luc Godard?

A laconic white room with a locker sewn into the wall looks neutral. But add a bouquet of fresh flowers next to the sink, a pair of black candles in vintage glass candlesticks and colorful grout to the tile — and voila, the prank was a success! Another confirmation of the importance of every detail in the interior.

In the cozy living room and bedroom, they are, of course, made in the herringbone layout. Classic.
There I decided to put large handmade carpets, fashionable, relevant, at the same time exactly fitting into the concept and adding comfort. And at the desk there is a deer skin (artificial): despite the pretentiousness of the accent, it does not visually stick out, only sets the rhythm and mood.
